A few days ago I encountered a problem, my computer began stuttering and lagging, making it impossible to watch videos or play video games, which is the main reason I even bought my computer. I originally thought the problem could be fixed by doing a system restore so I restored it to a couple of months ago, but the problem persisted, and yes I did turn the router off and on a few times but that did not help and I reset the router as well neither did that. The problem is not in the wireless network because both my iPhone and my tablet don't have this connectivity issue. The internet is sporadic at best, if I'm lucky I will get four bars, but inevitably it drops to three and then eventually two and at two it begins lagging and stuttering. Once I disconnect from the internet the computer even speeds up(I obviously can't go onto the internet but my mouse stops lagging and fidgeting). All I have to do to get the connection back is click the Wi-Fi icon and then disconnect and reconnect to the internet, but this is an extreme inconvenience and not as fun as it sounds if I'm playing a game online or watching a movie and the audio starts stuttering or if the connection becomes really bad in the middle of a download… This problem has become extremely frustrating and I have work to do on the computer. Any help would be much appreciated
I have an Asus desktop with 8 gigs of RAM running windows 7 home premium 64 bit with and i7 processor
